In case you thought the soft robot wasn't quite creepy enough, meet our new robot overlord: the hexapod.
Norwegian engineer Kare Halvorsen designed the hexapod, which appears at first like a giant ball, but then sprouts legs and walks (SO SCARY!). He details his process on his blog, which you should check out if you're interested in the technical process.
As of now, this robot can only put out, retract, and crawl. Next, Halvorsen is working on its rolling capabilities.
Watch it in action here (I assume there's a porno soundtrack to distract us all from THE HORROR!):
